How to convert XMR to ETH: converter and swap for Monero to Ethereum
Fund a fresh Ethereum address with no on-chain link to your previous one — useful before interacting with contracts that see, and log, whatever address calls them.
Swapping Monero (XMR) to Ethereum (ETH)
Going into Ethereum buys access rather than privacy. It is where the stablecoins, the tokens and the on-chain applications live, and a great deal of crypto activity simply is not reachable from Monero. This route funds that activity through an exchange service that keeps no accounts — an account standing between the two is the usual way such funding gets linked back to an identity.
Be deliberate about which ETH wallet address receives it. The ETH lands transparent and stays that way. If you send it to an address you have used before, the incoming amount joins that address’s public history — including whatever it is already associated with. A fresh address keeps this swap from being folded into an existing profile, and costs nothing to generate.
The common trigger is needing to interact with something specific — a contract, a bridge, a market — that only exists on Ethereum. Funding a fresh address for that purpose, rather than reusing one, keeps the activity separate from anything else you have done on the chain. Starting it from Monero means there is no exchange withdrawal at the beginning of the trail. Enter the amount of Monero XMR to swap, XMR to ETH, and the quote shows what the fresh address will receive. Going ETH to XMR instead is a route of its own: the ETH to XMR exchange page is where you convert ETH to XMR.

Those are reference figures, not offers; the widget above is the live calculator for any amount. When you request this swap we compare live rates across several independent liquidity partners and show the best receive amount, which is what the order is created with. The partner's spread, our commission and the fee for delivering ETH to your wallet are already inside it — see fees and how the comparison works.
Convert XMR to ETH: conversion rate and estimated amount
To convert XMR to ETH, enter the exchange amount in the widget. The ETH converter tool then shows the estimated amount you will receive. That figure is the XMR to ETH conversion rate from the best of our partners at that moment, with every fee already taken off. It is a receive amount, not a mid-market price. The widget doubles as a XMR to ETH exchange and price calculator: change the amount and the XMR to ETH conversion updates with it, with no order created.
The rate moves with market conditions across the cryptocurrency market, so the estimated amount is only current until you confirm. At that point it is priced once more, and the order is created at the rate you were shown. Converting Monero costs nothing beyond that figure except one thing: the Monero transaction fee your own wallet pays to send the deposit. On some chains those are called gas fees. They depend on network conditions, not on us.
The exchange process has one manual step, which is sending the deposit. Everything after it is automatic. Once the exchange is completed, the ETH is in your wallet and the swap's data is purged. If something looks wrong before then — a deposit below the minimum, a transfer on the wrong network — the support team can be reached with your swap link. The refund address you set is where funds return.
XMR to ETH minimum amount, network fee and exchange rate
- Minimum amount
- The live minimum amount of XMR for this pair is shown in the widget before you confirm. It moves with network conditions rather than being a fixed figure, and there is no maximum.
- Network fee
- The fee for delivering ETH to your wallet is already inside the receive amount. The one cost outside the quote is the Monero network fee your own wallet pays to broadcast the deposit.
- Exchange rate
- The XMR to ETH exchange rate is compared in real time across several partners when you enter the amount, and re-priced server-side the moment you confirm, so the rate you see is the rate the order is created with.
- Confirmations
- The exchange runs once the XMR deposit has the network confirmations the partner requires, and Monero produces a block every ~2 min. How many it waits for depends on the amount, so the tracking page shows the live count.
Instant XMR to ETH swaps
Every XMR to ETH swap is processed automatically as soon as the required blockchain confirmations land — no manual approval, no review queue, no waiting period we impose. Exchange Monero to Ethereum here and there is no account step either, so your Ethereum leaves for your wallet as fast as network conditions allow.
Before you send
- Set a refund address. It is where funds go back to automatically if the swap cannot complete. Without one a refund is still possible, but you have to contact support with your swap link and a return address first — see refund handling.
What we can and can't see
This swap needs no account, no email and no identity document, because there is no mechanism here to collect them. What is stored is the amount, the destination address and the refund address — the minimum needed to execute and, if necessary, reverse the exchange — and it is purged once the swap finalizes.
Private mode routes the exchange so that no single party sees both ends of it, at the cost of slightly more spread and one extra settlement hop. The full architecture, and what it deliberately does not promise, is on the privacy page.
How to exchange XMR for ETH
- 01Pick the pair and amount
Set how much XMR you want to exchange. The widget quotes live across our partners and shows the best ETH receive amount.
- 02Give two addresses
Your ETH destination address, and a XMR refund address in case the swap cannot complete. No account, no email, no identity check.
- 03Send the deposit
Transfer the XMR from your own wallet to the address shown. Nothing is held on your behalf — it is forwarded on arrival.
- 04Receive your coins
Once the deposit confirms, the exchange executes and the ETH is sent to your address. Follow it the whole way on the tracking page.
XMR to ETH — frequently asked questions
Do I need an account to swap XMR for ETH?
No. There is no registration, no email and no identity check anywhere in the flow. You provide a destination address and a refund address, send the deposit from your own wallet, and the funds are forwarded to you.
Will I have enough ETH to actually use what I receive?
Only if you plan for it. Every action on Ethereum costs gas paid in ETH from the address that signs, so a payout sized to exactly the amount you intend to deploy leaves nothing to deploy it with. Add headroom, especially if you intend to interact with contracts rather than simply hold the balance.
Should I receive into an address I already use?
Better not to. Ethereum addresses accumulate a permanent, publicly readable history, and an incoming amount joins whatever that address is already associated with — past contract interactions, token holdings, any exchange withdrawal that funded it. A fresh address keeps this swap out of that profile and costs nothing to create.
What is the minimum XMR amount?
It moves with network conditions, so the widget shows the live minimum for this pair before you confirm rather than quoting a fixed figure. Minimums exist so on-chain costs stay a small fraction of the swap instead of swallowing it. There is no maximum.
What happens if the swap fails?
It is refunded to the return address you set before confirming — that address is the whole mechanism, which is why it is asked for up front. Deposits below the minimum, deposits that arrive after the quote window closes, and routes that stall are all handled the same way.
How long does a XMR to ETH swap take?
Mostly the time the Monero network takes to confirm your deposit. The exchange runs automatically once the deposit has the confirmations the partner requires, and the ETH payout follows within minutes of that. The time depends on network conditions and on the amount. Larger deposits wait for more confirmations, and Monero produces a block roughly every ~2 min. The tracking page shows the live confirmation count.
